--- Evelyn's Point Of View ---

"Antonella?!" Lionel suddently called softly as he started staring at a woman confused.

I looked at Leo then at her. If Lionel was confused, just take a moment and think of the way I was feeling. The woman started heading in our direction. The paparazzi went crazy again. She had long brown hair, brown eyes and the closer she came, the shorter she looked.

"Who do you think you are?" The woman questioned me. I let go of Lionel as I raised my eyebrow. Exactly when I was ready to reply to her, Leo placed his hand on my shoulder and interrupted me:

"Antonella... But who do you think you are in order to come here and do this kind of circus?"

"Leo, Leo... Go, go... I'm capable of defending myself..." I said as I looked at Lionel. I took a step forward and looked straight into her eyes. I looked down. She was a lot shorter than I was. "What's the matter with you?"

"Hmm... How dare you ask me that? I am Antonella and..."

"You could be whoever you wanna be... Do I look like I care?" I asked her laughing a little.

"Well, you should care, because I am the one Lionel is in love with! I've gotten so much more than you...".

I looked back at Lionel giggling. He was just staying in the back frowning at Antonella. I turned my look back to her.

"Really? I'm sorry for you though... Umm... It looks like all you've got is a meter and a hope..." I reply with an ironic voice. Everybody around us was watching and the press couldn't stay in a place. They all started laughing like crazy when they heard "a meter and a hope"... Well... What could I say? Don't come to argue with me if you're a 1.50 cm tall woman with anger issues.

"HOW DARE YOU, YOU... DO YOU... YOU... WAWHA! WHO..."

"OOOOKKAAAAAYYY..." Leo suddently said as he got between us.

"Leo, did you hear what she just told me? Leo, please do something, you can't just leave it like that!" Antonella said with a sweet voice as she was trying to get closer to him.

"Nah, nah, nah, nah... You deserved it. Now go away... As you see, Evelyn can be a little temperamental when it comes to fights, so... You don't want more trouble for yourself..."

"Wait... Is that your choice, Leo? After all we've been through together..." Antonella answered trying to keep her "sweet" and "innocent" voice, even though everybody knew she was ready to explode. I rolled my eyes a little as I looked at Lionel.

"What the hell are you talking about? Antonella, you know that what happened between us ended years ago. Get over it already, like I did! Either you want it or not, Evelyn is now a part of my life so you'd better get used to that! Let's go... It's just too much for me for one single day." Lionel took my hand as he starded walking away leaving Antonella in the back. The press was still here and it seemed like they weren't going to leave that easy. We stepped on the road again. I suddently stopped making Leo give me a confused look.

"What are you doing, Evelyn?"

"I gotta go home and I guess it'd be the best for you to do so too... You're right... It's been a long day for both of us..." I answered him as I let go of his hand.

Leo got closer and hugged me one more time. "Please... Call me when you get to your villa... Take care!"

"Don't worry, everything'll be fine... Gabe is here with me... And what happened today... It's a long story..."

As I was getting ready to get in the car, a black Mercedes stopped right next to me. I quickly turned to see Bruce walking in my direction.
"Evelyn, sweet Jesus... Everybody's been crazy for you in the last couple of hours." Bruce said as he got closer to me.
